Last year's improved results are due to strong leadership and a return to a safety first mindset on the factory floor.

A union representing about 1,600 white-collar workers at fuselage supplier Spirit AeroSystems said on Thursday that it has reached a tentative agreement with Boeing on a new collective bargaining contract.

Deliveries of the 787 are slated to begin in 2031. With the new Boeing commitments, Delta has 232 narrowbody and 54 widebody aircraft on order for delivery in coming years. Besides the 30 firm 787-10 deliveries, Delta has options for 30 more. The aircraft has 25% better fuel efficiency per seat than the aircraft they will replace, Delta said.

Boeing bounced back in 2025 to deliver the most planes since 2018 and to beat European rival Airbus in net orders for the first time in seven years in a sign of a turnaround at the U.S. planemaker after a series of crises.

At first look, Boeing's valuation seems reasonable. With a price-to-sales ratio of 2.3, compared to 3.3 for the S&P 500, one might conclude that the stock offers good value. After all, you’re spending less per dollar of sales than the broader market average.

Boeing delivered 600 commercial aircraft in 2025, its highest total since 2018, and outsold Airbus on net orders for the first time in seven years.
